That's a cool color, like a brandywine? He's got some kinda weird fade going on with it. Pretty sure I would have sold the Mustang too, but got back to this cool truck! Couldn't help but notice the fact he put a 53-55 F100 fuel tank and fill in his 56. That is certainly odd, haven't seen that done, most people dislike that tank setup. Looks like its a 351W too, which is super cool. Probably a 69-73..? The large plug years. The smaller plug started in '74. Usually get away with just using 68-73 SBF Car or truck Radiator hoses in most cases. The ol' custom bent metal coat hangar taken to the parts store is always a fan favorite. I refuse to use that universal trash. Speaking of trash, wiggly fuel pump arms are NOT a Ford thing, they are a china junk parts thing... getting all too common these days.
Truck seems to sound pretty good! Looking forward to more of this project!
